How To Be Fearless Under Pressure // The powerful feelings of fear, panic and stress can be overwhelming if we do not control them. Harnessing fearlessness and finding your best self under pressure is a skill that can be learned and today is the day to sweep fear to the side and stop holding yourself back. In this video, peak performance coach and expert Eric Partaker will show how you can be calm under pressure, perform at your best and become mentally strong so you can pursue your dreams without fear stopping you.

KEY POINTS

Take A Step Back - What’s causing your panic and stress? Find the root of the cause. Understanding the situation will allow you to reduce the fear when you’re under pressure. You’ll be able to get a better idea of what’s driving the situation and therefore how to correct it.

Knowledge Is Power - Schedule into your calendar time for knowledge and skill development. Identify the skills you need to work on in order to relieve the pressure in your stressful situations. The greater your knowledge and skills the more confidence you will have. 

Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable - Your growth and future potential sits outside of your comfort zone. You need to step outside of it to grow. Nothing great in life is achieved by staying comfortable. Embrace stress, reframe it as something that is going to benefit you.

Change Your Words, Change Your Mindset - When stressed, and the feeling of nerves creeps up on you. Reframe your mind, Instead of sitting there saying “I’m nervous” say “I’m excited!” The energy that you feel, when nervous or anxious is chemically very similar to the feelings within your body when excited. 

Relive The Past - Remind yourself of times when you experienced an equally challenging situation, and remember how you were able to get through it.
